A
It's been a long time since I rock and rolled,
It's been a long time since I did the Stroll.
D
Ooh, let me get it back, let me get it back,
A
Let me get it back, baby, where I come from.
E
It's been a long time, been a long time,
D
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time. Yes it has.
A
It's been a long time since the book of love,
I can't count the tears of a life with no love.
D
Carry me back, carry me back,
A
Carry me back, baby, where I come from.
E
It's been a long time, been a long time,
D
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.
A
Seems so long since we walked in the moonlight,
Making vows that just can't work right.
D
Open your arms, opens your arms,
A
Open your arms, baby, let my love come running in.
E
It's been a long time, been a long time,
D
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.
